"We believe that the teacher MUST know & care about the learner. It is the teachers job to find out the learning style and interests of the students.
...they must find out what the learner CAN do."
Attention Deficit
At Excel Achievement Center, we know that students with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) are often misunderstood and frustrated. We believe that these highly intelligent individuals benefit most when being taught with methods that lend themselves to their specific learning style.
Excel also specializes in teaching focus and attention strategies. We strive to find out which specific attention areas each child needs more instruction on. For example, some students are easily distracted; others are accused of "spacing off" or drawing into their own heads.
Payment options:
Excel Achievement strives to offer tutoring to all students and thus many financing options are available. Please contact the Center to find out how tutoring can be affordable for your child! See more on our Financing page.
